“For one thing, I’m not a morning person”

Total BINGO! [for me, at least]

Sleep on!

Question: the virus hangs on pkgs, etc?...why aren’t delivery/mail people falling like flies?

Maybe they are, and we just don't know it, yet? 😱

Has your regular delivery person changed?

I’m so sorry to hear that. We fortunately had 57% in cash. Equities are down 1/3 which is a HUGE blow. My big fear is our insanely inflated California house price is going to collapse.

Any news story that is a question isn’t a real news story.

Not the airborne ones.

Apparently, COVID only lasts in the air for a few hours.

Overnight would be enough for that vector to be eliminated.

“Fresh air is constantly pushed into the building by the rooftop units.

Overnight, the air in the building is replaced SEVERAL TIMES.”

.......

Depending upon the room in a building and its use, the building codes dictate the required number of air changes per hour. A supermarket should be between 5 to 10 air changes per hour.

Not if all the old people stand in line away from the self checkouts, spend 20 minutes pulling checkbooks out of pockets/purses after the total is given them and slowly write the check, chat incessantly, etc. :P

Effective treatment strategies will be confirmed.

If it's one of the two they're most hopeful about we'll know in the blink of an eye if they're effective or not. My money's on a combination therapy of azithromycin and hydroxychloroquine.

I can’t even retire now my 401 k has been devastated...

It ain't over till it's over. Trump built the economy up once, he can build it up again.

And I thought part of the point of this was to allow them to get needed supplies before the TP locusts descended on the stores.

Now THAT would be a good reason to get up early and hit the Safeway around 8 AM. Maybe even stop by the local Dunks for coffee and a donut on my way home.

I’ve never heard of senior hour. Is this part of the day where there are car accidents because they fall asleep at the wheel?

We’d rather shop with the whipper snappers than the dottering old fools like us. They don’t slow you down.

Safest would be first in line when the store opens for the day.

Yeah, plus a lot of them are probably packing those bacteria infested reusable bags.

My mailman has been wearing disposable rubber gloves for years...(maybe that says something about my neighbors (LOL!)
